Since 1990 CESVI has used the same auditing procedures prescribed for the companies quoted on the stock exchange, delivering its financial statement to PricewaterhouseCoopers for audit, one of the most famous international companies in this sector.


Our organisation was the first non-profit association to win the Annual Report Award – Oscar di Bilancio – from the Italian Public Relations Federation (FERPI) in 2000, and the only one to be awarded this recognition a second and a third time (in 2011 and 2017).

The Annual Report 2023 certifies that CESVI is active in 27 countries around the world, both in the humanitarian field – with a growing response to the biggest global crises, marked by the overlapping of multiple emergencies that have led to an increase in humanitarian needs to unprecedented levels – and in the development field, with programmes to fight hunger, poverty and inequality, in the areas of health protection, food security, civil society support and governance, inclusive and sustainable growth and child protection.

In 2023, we directly reached over 1.7 million people worldwide through 127 projects. For every euro raised, 90 cents go directly to activities on the ground.

The Annual Report 2023 has consolidated the innovative elements introduced in previous years to accurately represent the complexity of our program-based approach, divided by type of intervention – emergency and/or development – and aggregated according to the relevant specific sectors.

CESVI’s Annual report is available in two monolingual editions (Italian and English) and comprises two sections: Annual Report – subdivided into chapters: Identity, Governance, Performance, Stakeholders – and Financial Report, including the Financial Statements and related Mission, Audit and Monitoring Reports of the Control Body.
